TORONTO, Feb. 17, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Alamos Gold Inc. (TSX:AGI; NYSE:AGI) (“Alamos” or the “Company”) today reported its updated Mineral Reserves and Resources as of December 31, 2025. For a detailed summary by asset, refer to the tables below.
Highlights
- Global Proven and Probable Mineral Reserves increased
32% to 15.9 million ounces of gold (265 million tonnes (“mt”)) with grades also increasing5% to 1.87 grams per tonne of gold (“g/t Au”). This was driven by the successful conversion of a large portion of the Island Gold District’s Mineral Resource base into Mineral Reserves- Island Gold’s Mineral Reserves more than doubled, increasing
125% to 5.1 million ounces (15.1 mt grading 10.61 g/t Au), reflecting the conversion of existing and newly defined Mineral Resources to Mineral Reserves - Magino’s Mineral Reserves increased
56% to 3.1 million ounces (113 mt grading 0.86 g/t Au), primarily reflecting the successful conversion of Mineral Resources to Mineral Reserves
- Island Gold’s Mineral Reserves more than doubled, increasing
- Global Measured and Indicated Mineral Resources increased
6% to 5.5 million ounces of gold (119 mt grading 1.44 g/t Au), driven by additions at Young-Davidson, Lynn Lake and Mulatos, more than offsetting Mineral Resource conversion at Magino - Global Inferred Mineral Resources decreased
63% to 2.0 million ounces of gold (35.0 mt grading 1.82 g/t Au), reflecting the successful conversion of Inferred Mineral Resources at both Island Gold and Magino to Mineral Reserves - Gold price assumption of
$1,800 per ounce used for estimating Mineral Reserves and$2,000 per ounce for estimating Mineral Resources, up from$1,600 and$1,800 per ounce, respectively, in 2024, reflecting the significantly higher gold price environment. Both remain conservative relative to the three-year trailing average gold price of approximately$2,592 per ounce - Record global exploration budget of
$97 million in 2026, up37% from the$71 million spent in 2025 with expanded programs at the Island Gold District, Young-Davidson and Lynn Lake. The expanded exploration budget is underpinned by broad-based success across the Company’s asset base in 2025
“Our long-term investment in exploration continues to create value with another substantial increase in Mineral Reserves to 16 million ounces, and at higher grades. The majority of this growth was within the Island Gold District, with the larger Mineral Reserve serving as the foundation for the Island Gold District Expansion announced earlier this month. This marks the seventh consecutive year of growth, with grades increasing

Mineral Reserves
Global Proven and Probable Mineral Reserves totalled 15.9 million ounces of gold as of December 31, 2025, a
The strong growth in Mineral Reserves more than outpaced mining depletion of 594,000 ounces in 2025. This marked the seventh consecutive year Mineral Reserves have increased for a cumulative increase of
Island Gold was the largest driver of the increase with underground Mineral Reserves increasing
Magino’s open pit Mineral Reserves also increased
Young-Davidson’s Mineral Reserves were largely unchanged at 3.0 million ounces grading 2.20 g/t Au, with additions to Mineral Reserves offsetting the majority of depletion. Mulatos Mineral Reserves decreased to 1.2 million ounces grading 4.00 g/t Au reflecting depletion at La Yaqui Grande. With limited drilling completed at PDA, Mineral Reserves at the higher-grade underground project were unchanged. Combined Mineral Reserves at the Lynn Lake project increased slightly to 3.4 million ounces grading 1.25 g/t Au, driven by additions at the Linkwood satellite deposit.
A detailed summary of Proven and Probable Mineral Reserves as of December 31, 2025, is presented in Table 1 at the end of this press release.

Island Gold District Expansion – significant exploration upside
On February 3, 2026, the results of the Island Gold District Expansion Study (“IGD Expansion”) were announced. The study incorporated the significant growth in underground and open pit Mineral Reserves defined within the Island Gold District over the past year, supporting an expansion of the operation to 20,000 tonnes per day (“tpd”). The expansion is expected to create one of the largest, longest life, and most profitable gold operations in Canada. Following the completion of the expansion in 2028, average annual production is expected to increase to 534,000 ounces over the first 10 years at mine-site all-in sustaining costs (“AISC”) of
Given ongoing exploration success and with significant exploration potential across the Island Gold District, there are excellent opportunities for further growth and upside. This includes within the main Island Gold deposit, which remains open laterally and at depth, as well as within multiple higher-grade regional targets in proximity to the Magino mill. The North Shear and past producing Cline-Pick mines represent opportunities for further production upside as potential sources of additional higher-grade mill feed within the expanded mill. Each will be an exploration focus in 2026.
A total of
The 2026 budget includes 50,000 metres ("m") of underground exploration drilling focused on defining new Mineral Reserves and Mineral Resources in proximity to existing production horizons and infrastructure. This includes drilling across the strike extent of the main Island Gold deposit (E1E and C-Zones), as well as within a growing number of newly defined hanging wall and footwall zones. To support the underground exploration program, 1,090 m of underground exploration drift development is planned to extend drill platforms on multiple levels.
Additionally, 48,000 m of surface exploration drilling has been budgeted targeting the area between the Island Gold and Magino deposits, as well as the down-plunge extension of the Island Gold deposit, below a depth of 1,500 m.
Included within sustaining capital at Island Gold is 27,000 m of underground delineation drilling. The focus of the delineation drilling at Island Gold is the ongoing conversion of Mineral Resources to Mineral Reserves.
The regional exploration program at the Island Gold District includes 16,000 m of surface drilling. The focus of the regional program will be following up on high-grade mineralization intersected in the 2025 drill program at Cline-Pick, located approximately seven kilometres (“km”) northeast of the Island Gold mine. Drilling will also be completed at the historic Edwards Mine, located in proximity to the Cline-Pick mines with the objective of extending mineralization beyond historically mined areas. Drilling will also be undertaken at the Island Gold North Shear target, and to the east and along strike from the Island Gold mine to test the extension of the E1E-zone.
Young-Davidson
Mineral Reserves at Young-Davidson decreased 47,000 ounces to 3.0 million ounces at slightly lower grades of 2.20 g/t Au, with Mineral Reserve additions offsetting the majority of mining depletion over the past year.
Measured and Indicated Mineral Resources increased
A total of
The second is to test and expand on higher grade gold mineralization that has been intersected within two areas of focus in the hanging wall of the deposit as outlined in a press release issued on January 30, 2026. This new style of higher-grade mineralization is located in close proximity to the existing mid-mine infrastructure, with grades intersected well above the current Mineral Reserve grade.
To support the underground exploration program, 200 m of underground exploration development is planned which includes further extension of the 9620-level hanging wall exploration drift that was completed in 2025. The regional program includes 10,000 m of drilling focused on evaluating several targets including the Otisse NE and Biralger targets, located approximately 3 km and 17 km northeast of Young-Davidson, respectively.
Based on underground mining rates of 8,000 tonnes per day, the Mineral Reserve life of the Young-Davidson mine remains at 14 years as of December 31, 2025. Young-Davidson has sustained at least a 13‑year Mineral Reserve life since 2011, reflecting a strong track record of Mineral Resource conversion. With the deposit open at depth and to the west, and new hanging‑wall zones continuing to be defined, there is excellent potential for this track record to continue.
Mulatos District
Total Mulatos District Mineral Reserves decreased
Mineral Reserves at PDA were not updated from a year ago (1.1 million ounces grading 5.45 g/t Au) as limited exploration drilling was completed with the focus shifting to development of the project. Exploration and Mineral Resource expansion drilling will recommence at PDA once underground drill platforms have been established to allow for more efficient exploration drill testing below unmineralized cover rock. With the deposit open in multiple directions, there is excellent potential for PDA to continue to grow. Based on current Mineral Reserves, PDA has a nine year mine life with significant exploration upside potential.
A bigger focus of the exploration program in 2025 was on extending and defining higher-grade sulphide mineralization as sources of additional mill feed for the PDA project. The program was successful in defining additional Mineral Resources at Cerro Pelon and a new discovery at Halcon.
Total Measured and Indicated Mineral Resources increased
The PDA project will include the construction of a 2,000 tpd mill to process higher-grade sulphide ore from PDA, opening up new opportunities to define and incorporate additional sulphide ore from across the District. PDA remains on track for initial production mid-2027. Cerro Pelon, Halcon and other targets across the District, including La Yaqui Grande, represent upside to the PDA project as potential sources of additional higher-grade sulphide ore.
A total of
Lynn Lake District
Total Mineral Reserves for the Lynn Lake District increased
Measured and Indicated Mineral Resources increased by 0.3 million ounces to 0.9 million ounces, reflecting growth across all four deposits. Inferred Mineral Resources increased by 0.1 million ounces to 0.3 million ounces.

Unless otherwise indicated, all Mineral Resource and Mineral Reserve estimates included in this news release have been prepared in accordance with National Instrument 43-101 - Standards of Disclosure for Mineral Projects (“NI 43-101”) and the Canadian Institute of Mining, Metallurgy and Petroleum (the “CIM”) - CIM Definition Standards on Mineral Resources and Mineral Reserves, adopted by the CIM Council, as amended (the “CIM Standards”). NI 43-101 is a rule developed by the Canadian Securities Administrators, which established standards for all public disclosure an issuer makes of scientific and technical information concerning mineral projects. Mining disclosure in the United States was previously required to comply with SEC Industry Guide 7 (“SEC Industry Guide 7”) under the United States Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) has adopted final rules, to replace SEC Industry Guide 7 with new mining disclosure rules under sub-part 1300 of Regulation S-K of the U.S. Securities Act (“Regulation S-K 1300”) which became mandatory for U.S. reporting companies beginning with the first fiscal year commencing on or after January 1, 2021. Under Regulation S-K 1300, the SEC now recognizes estimates of “Measured Mineral Resources”, “Indicated Mineral Resources” and “Inferred Mineral Resources”. In addition, the SEC has amended its definitions of “Proven Mineral Reserves” and “Probable Mineral Reserves” to be substantially similar to international standards.
Investors are cautioned that while the above terms are “substantially similar” to CIM Definitions, there are differences in the definitions under Regulation S-K 1300 and the CIM Standards. Accordingly, there is no assurance any Mineral Reserves or Mineral Resources that the Company may report as “Proven Mineral Reserves”, “Probable Mineral Reserves”, “Measured Mineral Resources”, “Indicated Mineral Resources” and “Inferred Mineral Resources” under NI 43-101 would be the same had the Company prepared the Mineral Reserve or mineral resource estimates under the standards adopted under Regulation S-K 1300. U.S. investors are also cautioned that while the SEC recognizes “Measured Mineral Resources”, “Indicated Mineral Resources” and “Inferred Mineral Resources” under Regulation S-K 1300, investors should not assume that any part or all of the mineralization in these categories will ever be converted into a higher category of Mineral Resources or into Mineral Reserves. Mineralization described using these terms has a greater degree of uncertainty as to its existence and feasibility than mineralization that has been characterized as Reserves. Accordingly, investors are cautioned not to assume that any Measured Mineral Resources, Indicated Mineral Resources, or Inferred Mineral Resources that the Company reports are or will be economically or legally mineable.
Cautionary non-GAAP Measures and Additional GAAP Measures
Note that for purposes of this section, GAAP refers to IFRS. The Company believes that investors use certain non-GAAP and additional GAAP measures as indicators to assess gold mining companies. They are intended to provide additional information and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for measures of performance prepared with GAAP. “Sustaining capital” are expenditures that do not increase annual gold ounce production at a mine site and excludes all expenditures at the Company’s development projects. “Total cash costs per ounce”, “all-in sustaining costs per ounce”, “mine-site all-in sustaining costs”, and “all-in costs per ounce” as used in this analysis are non-GAAP terms typically used by gold mining companies to assess the level of gross margin available to the Company by subtracting these costs from the unit price realized during the period. These non-GAAP terms are also used to assess the ability of a mining company to generate cash flow from operations. There may be some variation in the method of computation of these metrics as determined by the Company compared with other mining companies. In this context, “total cash costs” reflects mining and processing costs allocated from in-process and doré inventory and associated royalties with ounces of gold sold in the period. Total cash costs per ounce are exclusive of exploration costs. “All-in sustaining costs per ounce” include total cash costs, exploration, corporate and administrative, share based compensation and sustaining capital costs. “Mine-site all-in sustaining costs” include total cash costs, exploration, and sustaining capital costs for the mine-site, but exclude an allocation of corporate and administrative and share based compensation.
Additional GAAP measures that are presented on the face of the Company’s consolidated statements of comprehensive income and are not meant to be a substitute for other subtotals or totals presented in accordance with IFRS but rather should be evaluated in conjunction with such IFRS measures. This includes “Earnings from operations”, which is intended to provide an indication of the Company’s operating performance and represents the amount of earnings before net finance income/expense, foreign exchange gain/loss, other income/loss, and income tax expense. Non-GAAP and additional GAAP measures do not have a standardized meaning prescribed under IFRS and therefore may not be comparable to similar measures presented by other companies. A reconciliation of historical non-GAAP and additional GAAP measures are detailed in the Company’s Management’s Discussion and Analysis available at www.alamosgold.com.
